"The Best platform housing Adobe Ecosystem Tools."
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

Adobe has been the Bets in graphic design and development software applications. They have not only set the bar but still are pioneers of graphic design tools. Creative Cloud specifically hosts all the Adobe software tools; allowing the users to magage (update, upgrade, try etc.) it easily in 1 screen.

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

I can only think of the Cost at this point. Usability of Adobe's all tools have been highly intuitive and user-friendly. But that experience comes at a cost.

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Adobe software tools are helping out organization to create Product's instructions manual with a high quality texts and graphics. Also allowing us to add out imagination and bring it to the reality.

"Updated: Fixed! Bridge update 8.1.0 cannot add metadata. Adobe won't respond."
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

I have been using Bridge without any problems for years. I like the ability to download photos from camera, add metadata, keywords, batch, etc.

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

After updating Bridge I was unable to save metadata. Turns out Adobe reverted my version to 8.1 which would not work properly. After considerable digging I discovered that V11 is the newest. Why Adobe reverted mine to 8.1 is a mystery.

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Solved: can now save metadata! workflow re-established

"Easy to Use in Conjunction with Photoshop or Illustrator"
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

I love the ease of importing all of my files and sorting them as I work.

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

I don't like that this doesn't combine with my lightroom imports. I use PS and LR for different editing facets.

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bridge provides a great tool for applying simultaneous edits on a batch of photos combined with photoshop. Most frequently used to watermark my images.

"Great way to keep everything organized and well managed"
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

Keeping things organized, the ability to flag files, and the most useful for me is the Photoshop actions shortcut and being able to show files from sub-folders. In the new 9.0 update you can now see if there is a transparency in the preview. (This was a hugely requested feature)

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

Hot-folders would be a nice addition for batch operations - more custom layouts. It can be a resource hog if you leave it open for too long. Sometimes I would experience a glitch where If I was moving files, it would close and completely delete the folder I was in - never able to recover the data.

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

When working for below company, using the "advanced search" tool and "show items from sub-folders" to find only certain file types is a life saver. Being able to grab from multiple directories and move a mass amount of data for organizing is crucial for me.

"One of the best programs for editing raw images."
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

I like all the options available for editing raw images. The multiple features available for tweaking, like temperature, clarity, whites, etc. are exactly what editors and photographers need to subtly better images and drastically alter the looks of images.

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

It may seem small, but I really wish the undo/redo features were better on Bridge. A few of the brush features aren't able to do undo/redo, which requires the editor to completely delete the previous work and then redo it completely. I do also think it would be nice to have masking features in Bridge, like there are in Photoshop. That way, a majority of the editing could be done in just Bridge instead of using both Bridge and Photoshop together to edit a photo. I also wish the size of the brush could go smaller when editing. Many times, even when zoomed in as far as you can for fine tweaking, the brushes don't go small enough.

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

We do several studio shoots both in our studio and outside, and Bridge is primarily what we use to edit our photos and get them back to the advisors edited exactly how they want them. We've definitely seen the benefits from using Bridge to edit our photos.

"Like a trusty sidekick..."
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

Bridge has become so intuitive for me because it's basic and easy to use, and perfect for organizing tons of photos and project assets. I like the ability to quickly rename files, sort through hundreds of images easily and seamlessly, and view vector stock as well as photos.

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

Recent changes to the software have resulted in no longer being able to cleanly batch actions to selected images; I really liked the ability to apply Photoshop actions directly in Bridge, but it is now either missing or hidden very well!

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Renaming assets for video projects and digital display screens - I'm able to organize files without having to create tons of nested folders - my files can be neatly renamed, sequenced, and organized in one single folder.

"Lo mejor para buscar archivos en MAC"
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

Me encantan las capacidades de visualización. Si eres un usuario de Mac, sabes lo molesto que puede ser cambiar de vista mientras buscas en tus archivos, sin embargo, Adobe Bridge resuelve ese problema. Puedes ver todo de cualquier manera posible. Realmente disfruto mirar miniaturas grandes ya que sé que puede ser molesto ver a través del buscador típico.

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

Lo único que no me gusta para cuando el programa es la imposibilidad de ver los archivos de After Effects y Premiere Pro. Puedes ver los grandes íconos pero no su contenido, sería si pudieran crear la posibilidad de abrir una pequeña revisión del archivo incluso en imágenes, esto ayudaría mucho a diferencia de tener que abrir directamente el software y ver el contenido del video. Confío en que las versiones futuras de Adobe Bridge resuelvan este pequeño defecto.

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Si trabajas como diseñador, adobe bridge hace que tu trabajo sea muy fácil, especialmente cuando necesitas encontrar una o varias fotos específicas ¡y las etiquetas para ese propósito! ¡ni siquiera menciona la función de catálogo! ¡hace maravillas para ti!

"Edición y Diseño de Imágenes"
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

Primero de todo es que la aplicación es gratuita y esto favorece mucho a nuestra empresa proporcionando un gran aporte gracias a Adobe. Es ideal para poder ver muchas fotos una al lado de la otra. Necesitamos hacer esto todo el tiempo para elegir las mejores fotos para mostrarles a los clientes, de modo que no estén buscando cientos para elegir. También es ideal para procesar imágenes en bruto que tenemos que hacer para cada sesión de fotos. Seleccionamos las mejores fotos utilizando el sistema de estrellas . Abrir todas las imágenes a la vez y elegir procesarlas individualmente o en grupos. También me encanta la función de cambio de nombre por lotes. Eso es útil para cambiar el nombre de toneladas de imágenes cuando las ponemos en nuestro sitio web.

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

Usa mucha Ram, puede hacer que el ordenador se vuelva realmente lento si hay más programas abiertos al mismo tiempo. También puede moverse lento por sí mismo, si estoy procesando imágenes , no puedo guardar las imágenes y el proceso al mismo tiempo. Tengo que procesarlos a todos y luego guardarlos, lo que desperdicia tiempo porque entonces simplemente estoy sentado sin hacer nada mientras guardan, lo que también lleva un poco de tiempo.

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Cuando un vendedor entra para analizar un proyecto, puedo obtener una vista previa de todos los archivos que se están considerando antes de comprometerme a abrirlos todos en Photoshop, ahorrando tiempo y recursos de la computadora. No tenerlos todos abiertos a la vez es genial.

"Bridge is a great organization tool"
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

Bridge is such a useful tool for batch organizing / editing photos. With Photoshop, it really streamlines the editing process because you can apply simple adjustments to multiple images at once. It's also great for picking out photos to pull into photoshop if you have a lot you're sorting through.

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

I like pretty much everything about it. The only thing I could think of is that it would be nice if even more photoshop tools were available in bridge.

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

It really cuts down on time spent going through images just to make the same simple edit to all of them. With Bridge I can do that all in one step.

"Photo organizer"
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

I love how easy it is to use Bridge! I use it for my photography business to separate photos into easy to find files. It works seamlessly alongside both Lightroom and photoshop!

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

I do wish there could be an option to view photos on a larger scale.

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Organization! This software helps me keep all of my files organized according to my personal preferences.

"Lightweight, easy to use file management for the Adobe suite"
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

Quick loading times, the ability to customise your view and 'at a glance' look at files.

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

Not much, there was once a bug regarding file names not appearing through an accidental key combination, but this has been fixed.

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Much quicker and easier than the standard file management software such as finder and explorer.

"The best solution for navigating and rating all of your creative assets "
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

Bridge provides a great interface for rating and sorting all of your creative content

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

Adobe has left the interface alone when it comes to bridge. While it is customizable bridge looks dated in comparison to the rest of the creative suite.

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bridge is the solution for navigating media assets in one window. This is a huge timesaver while working on projects that require multiple media types or from multiple vendors. A fantastic desktop digital asset management application.

"Easy to Use File Explorer with SOOO MANY more capabilities!"
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

I love using adobe bridge to organize and preview files when using other adobe products. The company lor codes by is helpful as well as the ability to edit the metadata and add tags for easy searching and sortibg

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

It would be more helpful to be able to add additional colors to the color codes

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

File organization. Great high resolution previews of files without having to open the files up in photoshop/illustrator/indesign. I also often use the batch rename process. We get files in from vendors without our item number alpha codes on the file name. Bridge batch rename makes it a snap to quickly add this code to the front of the name. It is also a helpful program to use if you want to know the camera details of how the image was shot.

"Locate and batch process assets"
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

Being able to use batch processing functions, it's great for organizing and visualization of your files and assets. You also have a great tool with the file renaming, that comes in handy quite a bit.

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

Can run a little slow with extensive media libraries, the load times can be pretty hoggish when you have a lot of high resolution or raw files.

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Mainly to manage our assets, images, photos, etc. It's much better than any native folder viewing.

"Bridge is great!"
What do you like best about Adobe Bridge?

Bridge is able to quickly let me find images and see their info. I'm able to know the size and see close up details in images.

What do you dislike about Adobe Bridge?

Sometimes it's slow reading raw image files. The user interface still needs work.

What problems is Adobe Bridge solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm able to quickly see images our photographers have taken. And all at once. Instead of looking at each image separately in a finder window.
